Totally agree with all the reviews. We stayed in Edinburgh to visit our son who is in 2nd year at the University. Southside location excellent as 2 mins walk to son's flat and also within walking distance of university, Royal Mile, Arthur's Seat, Castle. Room at the top was good - comfortable king size bed, nicely decorated, great bathroom and... more

Stayed here for a long weekend - it is well placed for the centre and represents very good value. Clean and well run. The breakfast is very good - I had the full grill and that was enough for the whole day. Be warned it is on a main road so if you are a light sleeper ask for a... more

All the reviews heaping praise on this guest house are spot on. I booked a 5 night stay for myself and my partner on the strength of the positive feedback on various sites. The hosts couldn't have been more obliging and helpful. I booked the four poster room and my partner and I both loved it, very airy and spotlessly... more

The room was large, very comfortable and even had a bathtub (you have to be prepared to walk to the 3rd floor - it was worth it). The breakfast was outstanding, the best one of our 2 week stay... more

First my little niggles. Southside is on the main road so rooms at the front have some traffic noise and when it is hot sleeping with the windows open is a wee problem. The welcome is friendly and very attentive in a nice way. Breakfast with Buck's Fizz and daily local specials is fantastic. The centre of Edinburgh is close... more

Our stay in Edinburgh was great and a lot of that had to do with our wonderful suite at the Southside Guest House. The room was very tastefully decorated and had all the amenities that we needed provided for us.
